Game Releases This Week

Cyan Worlds has released remakes of the classic puzzle adventure games Myst and Riven on PS5 and PS VR2.

• The Myst remake, previously available on Meta Quest (2020), PC/Mac/Xbox (2021), and iOS (2022), is priced at $35. PlayStation Plus members receive a 20% discount until May 26.
• The Riven remake debuts on PS5, PS VR2, Xbox Series X/S, and the Microsoft Store (PC) at $35 with a limited-time discount.

PS5 Pro versions of both games feature improved view distance, foliage, textures, post-processing, and shading.

Fabraz and Atari have released Bubsy 4D, the first Bubsy game since 2019 and the first 3D entry in 30 years. The platformer follows Bubsy as he recovers a Golden Fleece from technologically enhanced sheep. New abilities include rolling into a ball form for faster movement.

Available on PC (Steam, GOG, Epic Games Store), PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, Nintendo Switch, and Switch 2 at $20, with a 10% launch discount on GOG.

OtherSide Entertainment has released Thick as Thieves on Steam for $5. Originally planned as a competitive multiplayer heist game, development pivoted to focus on solo and two-player co-op after finding those modes more enjoyable.

The initial release includes two thieves, two maps, 16 contracts, and six pieces of gear, with a campaign lasting approximately four hours. A PvPvE mode may be added later.

Amanita Design has released Phonopolis, a puzzle adventure set in a hand-painted cardboard 3D world animated at 12fps to mimic stop-motion. Players control Felix, a resident immune to the dystopian city's loudspeaker commands, who rebels by manipulating loudspeakers to solve puzzles.

Available on Steam, GOG, and Epic Games Store at $25 (10% discount until June 3).
